Pic's from the Little Ones Pagent

Christmas Sing along, Little ones Pagent.

The day after Christmas we have a sing a long, a few of us Mom's put together a pagent for little ones and since we couldn't perform at the area retirement homes due to a flu problem we performed it tonight.

The idea is we dress the little ones, we have a narrator and the little ones go onstage and act out the parts silently with a few lines and two songs.  You never know what's going to happen with little ones.  This year we had an angel mad at her sister for a prettier white dress and we had babies who didn't want to sit still, we had Tony and his friend messing around with the shepherd hook...it was quite entertaining.

what's it like you ask?

So the most asked question is, what's it like in your house... I bet your house is...

Well here's a sample, its loud, I warn ya.  Look at sweet Gwena, Daddy is multi tasking and she simply is trying to get her baby... its adorable.  Daddy pay attention!  haha.
